Small cave blocked with a grate. Please don't bother these little figures too much.

Tiefenbach Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Very beautiful, relatively open valley, which offers shady places, but also sunlight. The Tiefenbach ripples over rock into the valley.
It is a shame, however, that it runs behind barbed wire in many places below the oil mill.

A little way outside of Dedenborn lies the former oil mill in the Tiefenbach Valley between Dedenborn and Kesternich. A very beautiful, dreamy place.

Tiefenbach Rest Area

Highlight • Rest Area

Very original:
Someone put the table and bench in the Tiefenbach, so that you can take a foot bath, but you can also sit there with your feet dry.

Dedenborn Oil Mill

Highlight • Historical Site

Only the foundation walls of the house in which the grinder was housed remain. Opposite the house is a small quarry stone house as the only remaining remnant of a larger building from the 19th century.
